"Air defence systems on duty destroyed unmanned aerial vehicles over the territory of Bryansk region," it said on Telegram.
Bryansk governor Alexander Bogomaz said there had been no damage or casualties, and "operational and emergency services are working on the scene".
Another drone was destroyed further south over the Belgorod region on Wednesday evening, the defence ministry added, saying the attempted attack had been "thwarted".
Belgorod regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said it had been "shot down" over Tulyanka village, with no casualties or damage reported so far.
Since Ukraine launched its counter-offensive in early June, Russia has weathered waves of drone attacks in recent months that have sporadically damaged buildings, including in Moscow.
Russian officials have downplayed their significance.
